    Range estimation error .338 Lapua vs. .375 Chey

    I know that the flatter a cartridge shoots the more room for range estimation error you have without it killing you. (think .223 vs .44 mag at 200 yards) I know that you still try to range as precisely as you can. But, how much additional "fudge factor" do you get with a .375 over a .338 at...

    .375 cheytac vs 338 lapua

    I know there is a big difference between these cartridges as far as range goes. I want to build a ELR rifle and am trying to decide. On average, how much of a difference is there in weight for the rifle itself between these? Can they be built to similar weights, or is it like a .50 and they...

    338 RUM vs. 338 Lapua

    Is there any real advantage to the 338 Lapua over the 338 RUM? Velocities look similar. Is accuracy similar, as well? I concede that the brass on the Lapua might be better. What else?
